Part of a research study, by scientists at McMaster university, which is ongoing into

the influence of drinking milk after heavy weightlifting, has observed that milk helps exercisers burn more fat.

The scientists took three groups of young men 18 to 30 years of age,56 in total, and put them through a strict, fivedayperweek weightlifting program over a 12week period. Following their workouts, study participants drank either two cups of skim milk (脱脂奶), or a soy beverage with equivalent amounts of protein and energy, or a carbohydrate beverage (碳酸饮料) with an equivalent amount of energy.

Upon the study’s conclusion, scientists observed that：the milk drinking group had lost nearly twice as much fat—two pounds—as those in the carbohydrate beverage group, who lost one pound of fat. Those drinking soy lost no fat. At the same time, the gain in muscle was much greater among the milk drinkers than either the soy or carbohydrate beverage participants.

As published in the first stage of the study, the milk drinking group came out on top in terms of muscle gain with an estimated 40 percent or 2.5 pounds more muscle mass than the soy beverage drinkers. In addition, this group gained 63 percent or 3.3 pounds more muscle mass than the carbohydrate beverage drinkers.

“I think the evidence is beginning to increase, ”says Stuart Phillips—the leader of the study.“Milk may be best known for its calcium (钙) content in supporting bone health, but our research, and later others’, can continually support milk’s ability to aid in muscle growth and also promote body fat loss. Milk is the ideal postworkout drink for recreational exercisers and athletes alike.”

46.According to the study, which is the best drink for exercisers to lose weight？()

A、Fruit juice

B、Soy beverage

C、Skim milk

D、Carbohydrate beverage

47.From the passage we can learn that milk has a good effect on all of the following EXCEPT________.

A、muscle gain

B、brain development

C、bone health

D、fat loss

48.According to the passage, we can know that_____.

A、the scientists chose people aged 18,30 and 56 as participants of the research

B、the weightlifting program which study participants attended was 84 days in total

C、people who drink milk every day are always healthier and thinner than others

D、soy beverages are better than carbohydrate beverages for exercisers to gain muscle

49.What does Philips want to tell us？()

A、More evidence is needed to strengthen their research

B、Milk has more calcium than soy or carbohydrate beverages

C、The calcium in milk can also help gain muscle and lose fat

D、Athletes should be forbidden to drink other beverages except milk

50.What does the passage mainly talk about？()

A、What exercisers should do to lose weight

B、How milk influences people’s health and figure

C、The differences between milk and soy or carbohydrate beverages

D、A research on the effect of drinking milk—gain muscle and lose fat

The sense of sound is one of our most important means of knowing what is going on around u

s. Sound has a waste product, too, in the form. of noise. Noise has been called unwanted sound. Noise is growing and it may get much worse before it gets any better.

Scientists, for several years, have been studying how noise affects people and animals. They are surprised by what they have learned. Peace and quiet are becoming harder to find. Noise pollution is a threat that should be looked at carefully.

There is a saying that it is so noisy that you can't hear yourself think. Doctors who study noise believe that we must sometimes hear ourselves think. If we don't, we may have headaches, other aches and pains, or even worse mental problems.

Noise adds more tension to a society that already faces enough stress.

But noise is not a new problem. In ancient Rome, people complained so much about noise that the government stopped chariots(战车) from moving through the streets at night!

Ways of making less noise are now being tested. There are even laws controlling noise. We cannot return to the "good old days" of peace and quiet. But we can reduce noise—if we shout loudly enough about it.

Why are scientists surprised by the findings in their noise study？

A．Because the world is becoming increasingly noisy.

B．Because they have learned that noise is also is also a kind of pollution.

C．Because noise is an unwanted waste for human beings.

D．Because people knew little about noise before.

After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good hea

lth. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.

There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.

Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly. This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.

If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep!

A good title for this passage is ______.

A．Sleep

B．Good Health

C．Play and Study

Language is human speech, either written or spoken.All languages have a system of sou

nds, words, a system of word order, and grammar.Word order is more important in English than in some other languages.The sound system is very important in Chinese and in many African languages.

Language is always changing.The earliest known languages had complicated grammar but a small, limited vocabulary.Over the centuries, the grammar changed, and the vocabulary grew.For example, the English and Spanish people who came to America during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries gave names to all the new plants and animals they found.In this way, hundreds of new words were introduced into English and Spanish vocabularies.Today life is changing very fast, and language is changing fast, too.

There are several major language families in the world.Some scientists say there are nine main families, but other scientists divide them differently.The languages in each family are related, and scientists think that they came from the same parent language.

We learn our own languages by listening and copying.We do this without studying or thinking about it.But learning a foreign language takes a lot of study and practice.

(1).What do all languages in the world have？

A.Complicated vocabularies

Passage Four Does money buy happiness？It’s sometimes said that scientists have found no r

Passage Four

Does money buy happiness？It’s sometimes said that scientists have found no relationship between money and happiness，but that’s a myth，says University of Illinois psychologist Ed Denier.

The connection is complex. In fact，very rich people rate substantially higher in satisfaction with life than very poor people do，even within wealthy nations. He says“There is overwhelming evidence that money buys happiness.”said economist Andrew Oswald of the University of Warwick in England. The main debate，he said，is how strong the effect is.

Oswald recently reported a study of Britons who won between $ 2000 and $ 250000 in a lottery（彩票拍奖）. As a group，they showed a boost in happiness averaging a bit more than one point on a 36-point scale when surveyed two years after their win，compared to their levels two years before they won.

Daniel Kahneman，a Nobel-Prize winner and Princeton economist，and colleagues，recently declared that the notion that making a lot of money will produce good overall mood is“mostly illusory”. They noted that in one study，members of the high-income group were almost twice as likely to call themselves“very happy”as people from households with incomes below $ 2000. But other studies，rather than asking for a summary estimate of happiness，follow people through the day and repeatedly record their feelings. These studies show less effect of income on happiness，Kahneman and colleagues said.

There is still another twist to the money-happiness story. Even though people who make $ 150000 are considerably happier than those who make $ 40000，it’s not clear why，says psychologist Richard E. Lucas of Michigau Sate University.

Researchers conclude that any effect of money on happiness is smaller than most daydreamer assume.“People exaggerate how much happiness is bought by an extra few thousand，”Oswald said.“The quality of relationships has a far bigger effect than quite large rise in salary...It’s much better advice，if you’re looking for happiness in life，to try to find the right husband or wife than to try to double your salary.”

46. The main purpose of this passage is to discuss .

A. the contributions of household incomes to happiness

B. the complex relationship between money and happiness

C. the positive relations of money to happiness

D. the negative relations of money to happiness

第8题

Scientists find that hard-working people live longer than average men and women. Career wo

men are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than jobholders. An investigation shows that whenever the unemployment rate increases by 1%, the death rate increases by 2%. All this comes down to one point: work is helpful to health.

Why is work good for health？ It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. (76) Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. By work people come into with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.

Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Work makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.

(77) From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study and live a happy and healthy life.

The underlined word "average" in Paragraph 1 means ______.

A．healthy

B．lazy

C．ordinary

D．poor

Questions are based on the following passage. Cocoa contains chemicals calledflavanols （

Questions are based on the following passage.

Cocoa contains chemicals calledflavanols （黄烷醇） that may help reduce the risk of strokes and heart attacks by lowering blood pressure and improving the body"s use of insulin （胰岛素） .

Washington chocolate producer Steve Kumar said that is one reason dark chocolate is increasingly popular among his customers. "A lot of people are attracted by dark chocolate because they just decide they love it， and they also have been reading all about the health benefits of dark chocolate，" said Kumar.

But those benefits have not been confirmed by studies involving large numbers of people. Also， during the production of chocolate， a lot of flavanols are destroyed， while sugar and fats are added to contribute to flavor.

Scientists now want to learn the benefits of flavanols in their pure form.

They plan a four-year study of 18，000 adults， who will take pills of pure cocoa flavanols， in what is being called the largest test of its kind. Jo-Ann Manson， of the Brigham and Women"s Hospital in Boston， is the lead researcher. "This pill of cocoa flavanols will avoid having the calories and the sugar and the fat found in chocolate，" said Manson. The pills also won"t have any taste. Participants，divided in two groups， will take two identical pills a day. One group"s pills will contain flavanols， while the others will getplacebo （安慰剂） pills. "The amount of chocolate that it would take in order to have this amount of cocoa flavanols would be more than ten times the amount that people would ordinarily eat，" said Manson.

Whatever the outcome of the study， Kumar said he"s not worried about his business. "People like the experience of actually biting into a piece of chocolate，whatever their favorites are，" he said.

The flavanol benefits test is still in the early stage， so scientists are not sure when the participants will be handed their first chocolate pills.

What chemical in cocoa may do good to the heart according to the passage？查看材料

A.Fat.

B.Insulin.

C.Sugar.

D.Flavanols.
